Journal: JAMA (1992)

The two prospective studies of smoking and risk of cataract and cataract extraction in this issue of<i>JAMA</i>add significantly to the growing evidence that cigarette smoking is linked to cataractogenesis.<sup>1,2</sup>The findings of Christen et al<sup>2</sup>of an increased risk in male physicians of opacification in the lens nucleus among current smokers is consistent with previous studies that found a dose-response relationship between amount smoked and cataract,<sup>3-5</sup>and a risk for past smokers similar to nonsmokers.<sup>3</sup>Two previous studies found no association between cataract and cigarette smoking, but both had difficulties that may have produced null findings.<sup>6</sup>One study categorized current smokers and past smokers together, thus reducing the risk estimate for current smokers.<sup>6</sup>The other study, conducted in the Indian subcontinent, did not limit smoking to cigarettes alone but included other products (not further defined).<sup>7</sup>With the prospective data from the

Significant advances continue in the use of magnetic resonance (MR) for diagnostic imaging studies. The most important of these exciting developments will be highlighted in this article. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the appendicular joints provides excellent, detailed resolution of the articular cartilage, synovium, subchondral and cortical bone, and bone marrow.<sup>1</sup>The visualization of joints with MR makes possible excellent discrimination between inflammatory and noninflammatory arthritis of the appendicular skeleton, as reported by Stoller and Genant.<sup>1</sup>Pannus formation, hemosiderin deposits, early articular erosions, and synovitis become clearly visible.<sup>1</sup>The gradient echoes providing T<sub>2</sub><sup>*</sup>effects clearly demonstrate the articular cartilage, which is invisible when using spin-echo T<sub>1</sub>and T<sub>2</sub>imaging.<sup>1</sup> Magnetic resonance imaging is also advantageous in demonstrating the architecture of the spine and, as a result, is helpful in demonstrating metastatic lesions in the vertebrae. Magnetic resonance imaging effectively reveals the presence of

Sputum endothelin-1 is increased in cystic fibrosis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Authors: G.W. Chalmers, K.J. Macleod, S. Sriram, L.J. Thomson, C. McSharry, B.H.R. Stack, N.C. Thomson
Journal: European Respiratory Journal (1999)

This study was designed to identify a core set of items that may characterize impaired health in chronic respiratory failure (CRF) since none of the questionnaires commonly used to measure impaired health in patients with CRF were developed for use in such patients. Questionnaire items, identified from several sources, were administered to 92 patients with stable severe chronic hypoxia or hypercapnia, together with physiological measures of disease severity, the Sickness Impact Profile (SIP) and the St George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ). Of the 152 items identified, only 28 correlated with patients' perceptions of overall health and were also independent of age, sex, disease or type of treatment and did not show floor or ceiling effects. Principal components analysis identified three specific factors: "daily activities", "cognitive function", and "invalidity". The total score for the whole 28-item set correlated with other measures of disease activity, including SGRQ (r = 0.86) and SIP (r = 0.70), but not spirometry. The interquartile range of the 28-item set was wider than that of the SGRQ or the SIP. This study characterized two areas of health impairment in chronic respiratory failure that had not previously been identified: effects of impaired cognitive function on daily life, and a sense of invalidity. The measurements properties of this 28-item set suggest that it may be a more discriminative instrument for patients with chronic respiratory failure than existing questionnaires.

Results of Immediate Surgical Treatment of All Acute Type A Dissections
Authors: Marek P. Ehrlich, M. Arisan Ergin, Jock N. McCullough, Steven L. Lansman, Jan D. Galla, Carol A. Bodian, Anil Apaydin, Randall B. Griepp
Journal: Circulation (2000)

Background —Surgery for acute type A aortic dissection is associated with a high mortality rate and incidence of postoperative complications. This study was designed to explore perioperative risk factors for death in patients with acute type A aortic dissection. Methods and Results —One hundred twenty-four consecutive patients with acute type A aortic dissection between 1984 and 1998 were reviewed. All underwent operation with resection of the intimal tear and open distal anastomosis: 107 patients had surgery within 24 hours and 17 patients had surgery within 72 hours of symptom onset. Median age was 62 years (23 to 89); 89 were men. Forty-three patients had ascending aortic replacement only, 72 had hemiarch repair, in 2 the entire arch was replaced, and in 7 replacement included the proximal descending aorta. The aortic valve was replaced in 54 patients, resuspended in 52, and untouched in 18. Hospital mortality rate was 15.3% (19 of 124): of these, 3 patients died during surgery, 4 had fatal rupture of the distal aorta before discharge, and 2 died of malperfusion-related complications. Multivariate analysis revealed age &gt;60, hemodynamic compromise, and absence of hypertension as preoperative indicators of hospital death ( P &lt;0.05); the presence of new neurological symptoms was a significant preoperative risk factor in univariate analysis. Ominous intraoperative factors included contained hematoma and a comparatively low esophageal temperature but not cerebral ischemic time (mean 32 minutes). The site of the intimal tear did not influence outcome, but mortality rate was higher with more extensive resection: 43% with resection including the descending aorta died versus 14% with only ascending aorta or hemiarch replacement. Overall 5- and 10-year survival was 71% and 54%, respectively; among discharged patients (median follow-up 41 months) survival was 84% and 64% versus expected US survival of 92% and 79%. Conclusions —Immediate surgical treatment of all acute type A dissections with resection of the intimal tear and use of hypothermic circulatory arrest for distal anastomosis results in acceptable early mortality rates and excellent long-term survival.

Erratum: The Emerging Role of the Ubiquitin Proteasome in Pulmonary Biology and Disease
Authors: Adnan Bhutta, M Beam, J Parthak
Journal: American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine (2013)

Our investigation shows that sildenafil use has increased over the study period.Although we note a temporally associated decrease in mortality, this certainly does not imply that sildenafil use is the cause of this decrease.Rather, the decrease in mortality noted may be due to a variety of reasons, including use in lower-risk populations, different dosing regimens of sildenafil, and concomitant use (or not) of other therapeutic agents.Further studies, with careful attention to study design so that they are adequately powered to detect differences in mortality as an outcome, are needed to better understand the role of sildenafil either as monotherapy or in conjunction with other therapies.
